There arc three general mer- chandise stores here which would do credit to any thrifty community and q general look of satisfaction and complacency overspreads tho faces of their proprietors.
 The saloons are well patronized, and what was noticeable was the fact that the patrons always jingle their bullion on the bar instead of holding up their index finger and paying the barkeeper with benig- nunt smile.

Sig Weisl got q sound turning over by recent importation from the Old Sod last Friday. It seems that the r. i. purchased some cof- fee from Sig and after thoroughly boiling the fragrant berry, tried to grind it. The mill wouldn't work, and the water he had used to do the boiling not tasting exactly right, he naturally concluded he had been imposed upon, and re- turning to the store gave the man ager to understand that such a trick as seliing inferior coffee to Chinaman might work occasionally, but with ''iutellegint gintlemen' it was no go and don't you forget 1t Sig.

We learn from the Silver City Enterprise that a few days ago Charley Small, in company with q Mexican, one Luz Gonzales, shot and killed negro named John Hughes, in the vicinity of tEe MImbres mill. It appears that the Mexican did the shooting and that Small stood in with him. \ short time after they both held up a man named Ji,a Mcintosh and took from him his horse and outfit and left the country. Last week we see from the South west Stockman that Small was in Wilcox, aud tried to kill China man there. The Chinaman mar rowly escaped by throwing Small's arm up as he attempted to shoot, sending the bullet over his head Small was promptly arrested by Constable Wood and taken before Justice Nichols who held him to await the action of the grand jury in S5,000 bond. Not being able to furnish the same the bad man" was taken to Tombstone. This man is nuisance and is a danger ous character and ought to be sup pressed.
